Biljana Jovanovic (1953-96) was a Serbian intellectual who published poetry, three novels, four plays, and a number of nonfiction pieces, mostly connected to her time in the anti-Milosevic opposition of the 1990s. She was known for her feminist and anti-war work with human rights groups and a "flying" (underground) university. John K.
